What is this suppose to do?
Seems to do nothing.
Source : https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/ComptonCompton is a standalone composite manager, suitable for use with
window managers that do not natively provide compositing functionality.
Compton is a fork of Xcompmgr.
Source : https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/xcompmgrXcompmgr is a simple composite manager capable of rendering
drop shadows and, with the use of the transset utility, primitive window
transparency. (...)
Because it does not replace any existing window manager, it is an ideal
solution for users of lightweight window managers, seeking a more elegant
desktop.
If compton is in the jwm menu, this could mean that the shadow and
transparency effects can be switched on and off, or perhaps there's
access to a configuration panel.
Please see the attached screen shot for an example of what a composite
manager does.
BFN.
